Woman who shot intruder waited hour for police

DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) – Montgomery County dispatchers got three phone calls Wednesday morning, all from the scene.

The first was a woman calling around 3:00 a.m. worried about a man trying to break in.

Caller: Someone is trying to break into my house
Dispatcher: Can you see someone or hear someone, what’s going on?
Caller: Someone is banging on the door.

The dispatcher follows protocol and asks the caller questions for several minutes.
Then appears to end the call saying…

Dispatcher: Keep an eye out for the officer and call us back if you hear anything else.

1. Good grief.

According to Dayton Police at the time of th shooting there were seven officers and one sergeant on duty, all were working other calls.

Why didn't they ask the state police to help out? A SHOOTING is reported and they can't manage to turn up?

4. You had better use oven cleaner

If you shoot your assailant with a .357, they may grow angry and kill you.

5. The supreme court has ruled the police have no constitutional duty to protect you.
